muschi - I just have to say your post was very funny! This thread did seem to turn into a bickering-match. I laughed out-loud when I read what you wrote - and some may think I'm sad, but found it funny enough even to pass on to my co-workers! hahaha!

and rale - I think your post was perfectly put and I agree.

The Parkinson's comment aside --- to minimize Katie's complaint by saying that there are worse things in life is something non-thinking people say when someone voices their beef. It is not appropriate nor relevant to the issue at hand.

Sensitivity comes from experience. The fact that you think my reaction is "hyper" only underlines your lack of experience.
I'm not sure you are sorry that you used Parkinson's disease as terrible metaphor or sorry that we were "hyper-sensitive" but I hope you think twice before using it again.

It's really not funny at all.

I'm sorry your lack of sensitivity blinded you to the fact that your comments were insensitive. [V]

You got to work. So many people didn't get up this morning. You have a lot to be thankful for.

KatieM, Questionable, but I think those "could be worse" comments are meant to make you feel better [:)].

You're right, Rob. Don't quite see how the "could be worse" comments apply to a story about how we tend to watch out for certain cars, rather than the person behind the wheel, and then feel stupid.
